headed to Prague, he wanted to produce some events there, but quickly came to the realization that there were not any ticketing companies in Prague, like there was available at the time in North America, so he stared his own company. The company did very well in Prague, so he then decided to open an office in Montreal in 2003 and Ticketpro was established,” Bulman told Spotlight on Business. In 2008 the majority rights were purchased by Compagnie France Film who have been involved in the ticket service industry since 1994, they started by selling tickets for their own theater and they developed the software that Ticketpro still uses today which is managed by their own in-house fully bi-lingual team. Ticketpro may have started in Quebec with the goal of becoming the biggest independent ticketing company in the province, but soon after
its inception the company’s network of events began to grow steadily and continue to do so all across Canada to this day. The company now has offices in Nova Scotia and Ontario in addition to those in Quebec offering fully bi-lingual services in both of Canada’s official languages 7 days a week. Ticketpro has a reputation as a leader and expert in the ticketing services industry, but as our readers know, you do not become a leader in any industry without experience and that is what Ticketpro brings to every event in it network. “All our staff at our head office in Quebec and our regional offices in Ontario and Nova Scotia have significant industry experience with many working in operations for major events and organizations all across Canada prior to coming to Ticketpro and we are very fortunate to have them on our team,” says Bulman.
